President Uhuru Kenyatta had initially told Raila Odinga that he was going to campaign for him ahead of the 2022 elections, but he suddenly reversed his position and announced that he would not attend Azimio’s political rallies. Uhuru understood that attending Azimio’s political rallies is a poor idea since he risks being humiliated by the residents and sullying his reputation.
However, it has been revealed that Uhuru is currently working behind the scenes to guarantee that Raila Odinga is elected as Kenya’s fifth president ahead of the 2022 elections. It has been stated that Uhuru will use Karua to get into the Mt Kenya region merely because he is a Karua fan.
It has been stated that when he launches new initiatives in the region, he will include Raila’s name.
Many people who are familiar with politics understand that Mr. Uhuru’s absence from public campaigning for Raila does not imply that he is doing nothing. Mr Kenyatta has stated that he believes Raila is the best candidate to succeed him, and insiders claim that he is manipulating the strings behind the scenes. Uhuru was due to begin campaigning for Raila, according to many rumors disseminated by various media outlets, but he appears to have changed his mind.
Following his decision to remain silent during campaigns, Uhuru has now chosen to assist Raila behind the scenes. According to a source in the Star Newspaper, Uhuru is doing all possible to guarantee that the Raila-Karua ticket gets elected to the State House following the August 9th elections.
After being warned that it would be a bad approach that would expose him to assault from the opponents, Uhuru chose to forego the campaigns. The President’s exposure would have rendered him a liability for the Azimio la Umoja-One Kenya Alliance team, costing them votes as the Jubilee government’s mistakes would be used against them.
